This maintenance category lists articles which contain erroneous{{Coord}} templates.
| Section | Error | Suggestions for repair |
|---|---|---|
| ' | Coordinates with minutes >=60 or <0 (such as 1°75'N) | Check the coordinates. Many programs treat 1°75' as 2°15'. If the value is > 60, it's likely that decimal values have been entered as minutes, |
| " | Coordinates with seconds >=60 or <0 (such as 1°01'80"N) | Check the coordinates. Many programs treat 1'80" as 2'20". If the value is > 60, it's likely that decimal values have been entered as degrees-minutes-seconds, If the value is exactly 60, it may be the result of poor numerical rounding, and only require the carrying of the value into the minutes field. |
| > | Coordinates with latitude degrees > 90 (such as 96°N) or longitude degrees >= 360 (such as 7895°W) | Check the coordinates. It could be that the latitude and longitude are swapped or that a decimal point is missing. |
| < | Coordinates with latitude degrees < -90 or longitude degrees <= -360 (e.g. -91°N) | Check the coordinates. It could be that the latitude and longitude are swapped or that a decimal point is missing. |
| ? | {{Coord}} got parameters that don't match any of the formats it understands. | Check the unnamed parameters (listed inred after the error message) against thetemplate documentation.
|
| # | {{Coord}} got too many unnamed parameters. | Check the parameter list against the documentation of{{coord}}. Often coordinate parameters need to be merged. This can be as simple as replacing a pipe ( | ) with an underscore ( _ ). For example:
|
| D | {{Coord}} got a named parameter "dim=". | Replace the equal sign (=) with a colon (:) and merge as necessary. For example:
|
| G | {{Coord}} got a named parameter "globe=". | Replace the equal sign (=) with a colon (:) and merge as necessary. For example:
|
| R | {{Coord}} got a named parameter "region=". | Replace the equal sign (=) with a colon (:) and merge as necessary. For example:
|
| S | {{Coord}} got a named parameter "scale=". | Replace the equal sign (=) with a colon (:) and merge as necessary. For example:
|
| T | {{Coord}} got a named parameter "type=". | Replace the equal sign (=) with a colon (:) and merge as necessary. For example:
|
| s | {{Coord}} got a named parameter "source=". | Replace the equal sign (=) with a colon (:) and merge as necessary. For example:
